The Ghana Football Association (GFA) will officially unveils Carlos Queiroz as the new head coach of the Black Stars on Thursday, April 23 at Alisa Hotel, marking a significant step in the country’s preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
The Portuguese tactician was appointed earlier this year, following a period of review by the GFA after the team’s inconsistent performances in recent international competitions.
His appointment is part of a broader restructuring effort aimed at restoring the Black Stars’ competitiveness on the global stage and ensuring a strong campaign for the 2026 FIFA World Cup tournament.
Queiroz replaces Otto Addo, who departed after a spell that failed to meet expectations in major tournaments and qualifiers.
The decision to bring in the former Real Madrid, Portugal, Iran, and Egypt coach reflects Ghana’s ambition to rely on an experienced figure with a proven track record at both World Cup and continental levels.
Widely regarded as a seasoned international manager, Queiroz brings decades of experience, including multiple FIFA World Cup appearances and successful stints in charge of national teams across different continents.
Tomorrow’s unveiling ceremony is expected to outline his immediate plans, including preparations for upcoming friendlies, player assessment, and squad restructuring ahead of the 2026 World Cup campaign.
